On the night, Joanna will give an introduction to the wines and why they have been matched to the book. You have the option to purchase them by the glass - a great excuse to try them both. You can also take a bottle away with at a special RBTW price. Emily will then kick start the conversation. We like to give everyone a chance to contribute, if they wish. It's a warm and friendly evening and we love getting to know everyone!
THE BOOK:
Fast becoming a bookseller favourite, Buckeye published a couple of months ago and we are excited to see what the fuss is about!
A sweeping story set in a small Ohio town, spanning 30 years post war - the story shows its characters navigating the complexities of love, grief, parenthood and sexuality during times of conflict. Reviews are saying it’s heartbreaking and wise, human and compassionate - some comparing to The Bee Sting 🐝
Ann Patchett (who we love!) called it ‘a glorious sweep of a novel, full of love and war and the perilous intimacies of small town life. It’s funny and tender, realistic and strange. I have a feeling that with this book Patrick Ryan is going to be everyone’s favourite writer’
